I'd describe my personality as fun, dedicated, ambitious I like working with kids because they are a lot of fun. I'm a big kid myself so I can let me creativity and my inner kid come out and have fun with them I started working with kids ever since I was a kid! I always watched my younger sisters, nieces and nephews as well as children around the neighborhood. I started volunteering at Chicago park district then started working for them at 16 during the summer. At 19 I became year round staff there. At 22 I began working as a CNA at Lurie children's hospital. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my children and take them to do fun things One thing you should know about me is I treat everyone the way I would want my loved ones to be treated. I try my best to create a loving, caring, open minded environment. My skills include compassion, creative, empathy. I have an associates degree in general studies. My goal is to soon be in nursing school

For two years, Alexis was the primary caregiver for my daughter, and her care was nothing short of phenomenal. Alexis's dedication and commitment to ensuring my daughter’s well-being and development were truly remarkable. Alexis consistently went above and beyond in her role. She made sure that my daughter had everything she needed, from daily essentials to emotional support. Alexis's ability to assist with schoolwork was particularly invaluable; she patiently helped with homework and projects, ensuring that my daughter not only completed her assignments but also understood the material. This had a positive impact on her academic performance and confidence. Alexis was incredibly reliable and professional. She was always punctual and communicated effectively with both my daughter and I. Alexis organized regular outings and activities that were both educational and entertaining, contributing to my daughter’s social and emotional growth. Her ability to plan and execute these outings safely and enjoyably demonstrated her excellent organizational skills and her genuine care for my daughter’s holistic development. Alexis’s warm, friendly, and empathetic nature made her a beloved figure in our household. She built a strong, trusting relationship with my daughter, making her feel secure and cherished. Alexis's patience and kindness were evident in every interaction, fostering a nurturing environment that greatly benefited my daughter. Overall, we were extremely grateful for Alexis's exceptional care. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine love for her work made a significant positive impact on my daughter’s life. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone in need of a compassionate, skilled, and reliable caregiver. She was truly a gem, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as part of our family.
